[Hoytster]

I was going through Tiffany Lakosky's Facebook pics and found this new rig from PSE for 2009..the PSE TACTICAL ASSAULT CROSSBOW-15http://www.pse-archery.com/dimg/9f2436472913361f35c06034e5f88670.jpg...its sick!.....built on an AR type chasis...

[Hoytster]

I think I just broke my new years resolution!!!!

It uses a real ar-15 lower so in Canada it is a restricted firearm....... neat idea though.

[Hoytster]

Wildfoot..are you serious about this?....I cant buy this in canada?.....anyone else know of this being a restricted firearm???....

[wolverine]

Uhh.... it's not a firearm. It may be restricted for an plethora of other inane reasons but not for that.

bwahahahahahahaha thats funny

Its not restricted nor will it be ...
1: its not a firearm nor does it project its "bullet" more than 500 fps
2: its bigger than 18" therefore its not a restricted crossbow
3: its not a repeater therefore the AR-15 chassis dont count (like my friends AR look a like semi auto .22;) )

Hoytster .. you should like this cause it looks like Hoyt xt 500 limbs with 2 upper C2 Cams propering it with a long(15ish ") power stroke ... Its rumoured 417 fps .... Give a Stryker a run for its its money

[Wildfoot]

you have to supply the ar-15 lower. ar-15 lowers are the registered part of the firearm. ar15's are restricted. This is the opinion over at Canadian Gun Nutz as well.

The crossbow may not be a restricted firearm. but the ar-15 lower is restricted. you would need an ATT to take the ar-15 lower out of the house.. which means it would be a range queen...

Plus, its 4.5 - 5 feet long! Looks like a fun thing to lug around in the bush :rolleyes:

I stand corrected ....

from PSE website :

Precision-built performance, ground breaking engineering, and a revolutionary concept... Introducing the new TAC 15™ Crossbow by PSE. Forget everything you thought you knew about crossbows, the TAC 15™ sets new standards for accuracy, performance and shootability.

A marvel of innovation and engineering, only PSE could bring you the new TAC 15™. Designed to fit on any AR-15 lower receiver, the TAC 15™ is packed with innovative features that will have to be experienced to be believed. It all starts by incorporating the incredibly strong X Tech™ limbs into an extremely compact platform. The ultra-high performance twin-cam design shoots an amazing 412 fps and is capable of unprecedented accuracy. Plus, the TAC 15™ converts any AR-15 quickly and easily from a gun to a crossbow!
IMPORTANT NOTE: The TAC 15™ is shown with the AR-15 lower receiver and scope which are not included and must be purchased separately.

1300 USbucks for the risor only

My buddiers at OSS in Vanderhoof carry the Stryker line..they are great lookin riggs alright....Bowzone....you picked out my Hoyt eye pretty good!.....I already have the Hoyt and PSE and Len at OSS showed me the new Bowtechs.....I am pretty sure theres a Bowtech in my future.....

[Bowzone_Mikey]

I used to shoot Hoyts exclusivly for a while .. have owned a few of them .. still have one in my stable ..but Now i am into Bowtechs ...

[Hoytster]

Bowzone...this will be my next bow without a doubt!...I see now that hoyt is moving towardshttp://www.bowtecharchery.com/images/bowSm/captain.png Bowtech in riser design....This bow has a great look..

[Bowzone_Mikey]

thats the Captian isnt it ....

a sweet shooter ..

My 2 Bowtechs are still conventional in design .. the 101st Airborne and the newest Brigadier

[Hoytster]

It is the Captain......I think most of todays lines can perform as thy claim....I like the aesthetics of a bow to top it off....always like the Hoyt risers....loved the look of the X-Force...I was never a fan of Bowtech till I seen the captain hanging off the rack at OSS in the Hoof....it just caught my eye right away.....

[Hoytster]

man...I think I just hijacked my own thread!....lol..

[Bowzone_Mikey]

I beleive you have yes ...
It was a close race for my bow this year between the Brigadier and the sentenial ...

I choose the brig because I always wanted to get my hands on a Conny but they dont make it anymore and this is the closest I could get
